Fair Hill International

Leave a reply

With a motto of “From Green to Gold” Fair Hill International provides opportunities for riders of all levels to train and test their mounts through schoolings, clinics, Starter Trials, and Nationally Recognized Horse Trials – from ‘green’ novices to ‘gold’ medal winners.

Fair Hill’s gently rolling terrain, meandering streams, and thick, lush turf make it the ideal venue for eventing. Its location, halfway between Baltimore and Philadelphia in Fair Hill, Maryland, makes it a popular competition destination.

Fair Hill International runs on the property of the Fair Hill Natural Resources Management Area.
